Insert points

[mikescadprobs]

Hi does anyone have a routine for inserting multiple points x,y,z (northing/easting etc) from a txt/csv file.

If the points are AutoCAD points rather than a custom block, you don't need a routine. Start the "point" command, multiple option - type MULTIPLE then POINT. When it asks you for the first point, copy data from a text/csv file (or from Excel column if in x,y,z format) and paste into the command line. This continues the POINT command using the copied point information. Then ESC to end the command. Done!
